Wikipedia claims that (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat16) the volume
size ( I assume this is partition size) is limited to 2 GiB or 4 GiB in
fat16 (implementation dependent), and to 8 Terabyte (!) on fat32. I
believe the file size limits are not important to me, but only the
limits on volume size.
